The qualities and skills that a person requires to become successful in today's world cannot be learned at a university or other academic institutions. To what extent do you agree or disagree?

Nowadays, it is believed that in modern society certain

skills

and qualities for being successful cannot be gained at

universities

or other academic institutions. In my opinion,

although

the academic area helps people to become skilful in the labour market, some important approaches are not taught

such

as entrepreneurship and interpersonal

skills

.

To begin

with, the competition in the labour market has been increasing day by day.

Therefore

, reaching success is harder than ever.

In other words

, in the modern age, education at

universities

is not enough to land a good job and

also

not sufficient to develop particular

skills

. To make it clear, one of the most important

skills

for business organizations is entrepreneurship. It requires taking risks bravely which is unlikely to be learned at

universities

.

For example

, the most successful businessmen

such

as Elon Musk or Mark Zuckerberg did not complete their university degrees claiming that there is nothing to be learned at

universities

.

However

, they took risks and changed the world with their innovations.

Moreover

, the ability for leadership and teamwork are unique requirements for a career path.

However

, these essential

skills

are only be learned in

real life

experience.

For example

, it is unlikely to develop them at

universities

where theoretical information is prioritised rather than

real life

based

skills

.

For example

, as an entrepreneur and

also

graduated from a university , I started up my own business,

however

, I did not learn how to set up a business at my university. To conclude,

universities

can help to reach a diploma but it is not enough to develop certain

skills

.
